The mistake ruined their vacation 😳
A family trip to Pismo Beach turned into a nightmare for Charlotte Russ, who was fined $88,000 after her children collected 72 clams, mistaking them for seashells.
Unaware of laws requiring a fishing license and a ban on collecting juvenile clams, Russ was shocked by the hefty fine. Fortunately, a judge reduced it to $500. The family learned their lesson, and Russ even got a clam tattoo to commemorate the incident. She now warns others to follow beach regulations to avoid similar trouble.
